This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ------=_NextPart_000_0110_01C16229.9EA550E0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Here is a follow-up to getting TIB/RV working on FreeBSD and Java: I couldn't get Tibco's TIB/RV (Version 6.8) software to work on my = FreeBSD 4.3 machine using jdk1.2.2p10. The VM kept crashing. I talked = to Tibco customer support and got the following reply: " Since the Java jdk only supports green threads on FreeBSD 4.3 and = Rendezvous (TIB/RV) requires the use of native threads, the Java API is not supported on = this platform. " So, I don't know if what customer support says is true. But I did = notice that I could not get the example TIB/RV programs to run on = jdk1.1.8 on FreeBSD 4.3 either. I did get the C example programs to = run. I was able to get the example program "tibrvlisten" to work by = using rva (instead of rvd) and changing the transport from = TibRvdTransport to TibRvaTransport and running in JAVA mode vs NATIVE = mode which bypasses the JNI calls to the C Tibco library functions and = calls pure Java functions as I understand it. So if I build jdk1.31p5 on FreeBSD 4.3 will it use native threads? Do I = need FreeBSD 4.4? Do I need a thread patch? Thanks a bunch ------=_NextPart_000_0110_01C16229.9EA550E0 Content-Type: text/html; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML><HEAD> <META http-equiv=3DContent-Type content=3D"text/html; = charset=3Diso-8859-1"> <META content=3D"MSHTML 6.00.2600.0" name=3DGENERATOR> <STYLE></STYLE> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=3D#ffffff> <DIV>Here is a follow-up to getting TIB/RV working on FreeBSD and = Java:</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I couldn't get Tibco's TIB/RV (Version 6.8) software to work on my = FreeBSD=20 4.3 machine using jdk1.2.2p10.
